About this award
The University of New Mexico's Office of Sponsored Projects has been awarded a $200,000 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Office of Naval Research to develop a model for topological optical modulators with nanophotonic structures. The contract, awarded on January 9, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of March 9, 2027, carries no set-aside designation and will be performed in Washington, DC. This award reflects ONR's investment in advanced photonics research, an area aligned with the Navy's strategic interests in next-generation sensor and communication technologies.
As a child contract under a larger vehicle, this award leverages UNM's established capabilities in quantum computing applications of photonics and nanoscience research, supported by prior NSF funding totaling approximately $2 million in related quantum photonics initiatives. UNM's extensive federal research portfolio, including significant awards from the Department of Energy, NSF, and Department of Defense, demonstrates the institution's technical depth and experience managing complex research contracts. The modest contract value of $200,000 represents focused research development within ONR's broader photonics and optical technology program portfolio.
